The first time I came to Lantana, my experience with Wendy was so unpleasant that I swore I wouldn’t return. When my mom recently invited me here for drinks, I almost declined because of that memory.
But I’m glad I gave this place another chance, because tonight was the complete opposite. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was vibrant, and the service was absolutely five-star.
A huge thank you to Dontrell, Donte, and MJ they completely turned my opinion around. Their energy, kindness, and attentiveness made me feel welcome and reminded me why giving a place a second chance can be worth it.
Because of them, Lantana is back on my list of places I’ll happily return to.

Food was good but expensive. Drinks were outrageously priced and the cocktail list was lackluster. Staff was nice but embarrassingly slow. Dinner for 4 with just drinks and entrees took 2 hours. Why in the world does ear-shattering club music start at 8pm? It felt totally inappropriate while so many people were still trying to eat dinner and unable to converse.
Barista in the morning left the bar unattended for at least ten minutes while I waited to order coffee - why is it her job to run food from the kitchen upstairs?

Service is very good here, however their prices/fees are just outrageous! The food is good, but I don’t think I can keep coming here with their price gouging. Since when do restaurants charge a fee for ice in a drink?! Automatic gratuity, then add tax and it was almost ten dollars added to my bill. For ONE drink. $24 for you to scoop some ice and pour bourbon in a glass. Stop the madness.

Came in for a midday cocktail at my favorite place. The Hennessy Sidecars are amazing. The Starling Midtown is the only place where the drinks are amazing along with the staff. The vibe here is always on point. Great Atmosphere Great People. “MitchTime”

The kitchen messed up my veggie burger order twice and it took them over 40min to correct it, even though the restaurant wasn’t busy.

The food was great! We dined here 3 times during our stay at The Starling. What made the biggest impact on our experience were the staff. Devonte was a breath of fresh air and made our experience. We chatted with him about how it was our first time visiting and he gave us amazing recommendations. He also made us feel very welcomed. Chef Michelle surprised us with one of her new specials that was probably one of the best meals I've tasted and she was also very kind. Highly recommend!
